Otoplasty result?

I had an otoplasty on my left ear 3 weeks ago because it used to stick ot more than my right one.After the surgery my left ear was way to close to my head and it was not symmetrical with my right ear.3 weeks later my ear seems to come slowly foward but there is still a big difference between my ears. My question is, will it continue moving forward so it can look normal? My surgeon used absorbable stiches and she wrapped my cartilage.I also thing that some skin was removed too.what do you think
